During the tenure at Reliance International Academy, I was the member of International School Award (ISA) Team. I was heading the project “What’s In My Tiffin?”. There were three other members in the project. Including this one there were altogether 8 projects to accomplish. I was one of the active members working for ISA. The school was able to be awarded with ISA and at the same time the project I was leading grabbed one of “The Best Projects of the Year-2015” awarded jointly by British Council and Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology, Nepal. In 2017, for the second time I coordinated for the ISA and succesfully was able to grab it for Kathmandu Pragya Kunja School. And finally in 2019, I was able to get Hilary School awarded with ISA and it was my third success in ISA journey.
